In October 2015, US airstrikes destroyed a trauma hospital in Kunduz, Afghanistan, operated by Médecins Sans Frontières. 42 people were killed. Following the attack, MSF International President Dr. Joanne Liu testified before the UN Security Council and captured the attention of an international audience.

In the final episode of our series examining the future of war, Grant and Ravi welcome Dr. Joanne Liu to Displaced to discuss the attack, how the conduct of war is changing, and why civilians and humanitarians are increasingly the targets of conflict.

Displaced is a production by the International Rescue Committee and Vox Media. You can read more about this episode in our show notes.

Catch up on our Future of War series: hear about the top conflicts to watch in 2019, how technology is changing war, and the challenge of documenting human rights violations in Yemen.
